Vintage silver plated berry / fruit serving spoon by Potter of Sheffield, marked “SILVA” to the reverse.

Potter was a Sheffield-based maker working within the city’s long-established cutlery industry, known for producing silver plated tableware in the late 19th and early 20th century.

Potter operated within the well-known Sheffield cutlery trade, a major centre of British metalware production, and this piece dates to the early 20th century (circa 1900–1925).

A decorative example featuring an ornate bowl with embossed pineapple design, giving it a distinctive and attractive appearance.
